RESUMO
O objetivo deste artigo é relatar o caso de uma paciente de 8 anos de idade com a síndrome do miado do gato (CdCS) que foi encaminhada à clínica de odontopediatria para tratamento odontológico de urgência. As principais queixas eram uma lesão traumática nos incisivos centrais superiores permanentes e dificuldade em realizar a higiene oral. A paciente foi extremamente cooperativa durante a avaliação clínica, demonstrando capacidade de colaborar com opções de tratamentos conservadores sob anestesia local. O exame clínico mostrou overjet acentuado, lesões de cárie e uma higiene oral muito pobre. Avaliações clínicas e radiográficas foram necessárias para diagnosticar e determinar estratégias de tratamento das lesões traumáticas, lesões de cárie e gengivite, as quais foram realizadas ao longo de cinco consultas odontológicas. Os desfechos do tratamento são descritos. Este caso ilustra a variedade de achados clínicos que os odontopediatras podem encontrar na cavidade oral e face de pacientes com CdCS e os problemas que essas alterações podem causar. No atendimento desses pacientes, os dentistas devem tentar fornecer o melhor tratamento possível, priorizando o uso de técnicas conservadoras.
ABSTRACT
The aim of this article was to report the case of an 8-year old patient with Cri-du-Chat syndrome (CdCS) referred to the pediatric dental clinic for urgent dental treatment. The chief complaints were a traumatic injury to both permanent maxillary central incisors and difficulty performing oral hygiene. The patient was extremely cooperative during clinical evaluation, demonstrating ability to withstand conservative treatment options. Dental examination revealed accentuated overjet, carious lesions, and very poor oral hygiene. Clinical and radiographic evaluations were necessary to diagnose and determine treatment strategies for the traumatic injuries, carious lesions, and gingivitis, which were implemented over a total of five dental visits. Outcomes of the treatment strategies adopted are described. This case report illustrates the variety of clinical findings that pediatric dentists may encounter in the oral cavity and face of patients with CdCS and the problems that these alterations may cause. When faced with a CdCS patient, dentists should try to provide the best treatment possible and prioritize the use of conservative techniques.
